Question / Help Resize and Aspect Ratio

[DriveSM]

Need to change the resolution or aspect ratio. Using materials from this link here: http://mewiki.project357.com/wiki/X264_ ... deo-filter
But I can not. Tell me how to write correctly. In the log file, there is such a record, indicating an error.

Spoiler

20:12:02: Using custom x264 settings: "video-filter=resize:width=1600,height=900,method=spline"
20:12:02: The custom x264 command 'video-filter=resize:width=1600,height=900,method=spline' failed

What exactly are you trying to do? OBS already offers you the option to downscale your input to a resolution that will always fit your Input aspect ratio. And you can choose the Lanczos filter unless your downscale goes too far. Lanczos is very similar to spline if not visually the same.
If you can tell us what you want to achieve, we might be able to help you further.

My video is slightly flattened horizontally. I want him to do as I wanted. Either reduce not so much as offers me OBS. And set a specific size for the reduction. Why does not the fact that I'm writing.
--video-filter resize:width=1280,height=720,method=spline
Tell me the correct syntax.

I realized the string Custom x264 settings are made specifically for such things. After all, the x264 codec has the opportunity.

I am not sure if the custom string is meant to be used for video filters its syntax is: option=value option2=value2 option3=value3

I would suggest you set your base resolution to your desired output resolution then and fit your sources to your screen. Just select the source you want to fit and hit CTRL+F on your keyboard, or use the right-click menu :)

If you're trying to modify resolution, do that through the "Video" settings tab in OBS. You can downscale however you want.

If you are trying to fix an aspect ratio problem, you can click Edit Scene, select the source, and hold shift wile dragging the edges to ignore aspect ratio while resizing.

Thank you. I have achieved the desired results. Everything would be easier if the Custom x264 settings worked with the normal syntax. For example, as set up here.

All resolution related settings can be done in OBS directly, which is a lot easier than having to check how x264 filters work and configuring them. As I mentioned most custom settings can be done just fine in the current state.

The video is incorrect and the settings he sets in the custom command line will and can not be used by OBS. Most of his commandos seem correct but "--" is x264 syntax and does not work in OBS.

I understand that everything can be set directly in the OBS. But as it is, this option is called the Advanced setup.
I understand that this version of the OBS syntax is not working. There was another version and the person apparently it worked. This is contrary OBS spoiled syntax x264.
